727345 ÷ 42 
We want to figure out the number of times 727345 can be divided by 42.

Advancing to step 1:
42 can be fit into 7 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 7, we get 7.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 72 / 42

Advancing to step 2:
42 goes into 72 1 times with a remainder of 30.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 42 from 72 and we're left with 30.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 30 and repeat the process: 307 / 42

On to step 3:
42 goes into 307 7 times with a remainder of 13.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17.0
Subtract 294 from 307 to get 13.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 13, then repeat: 133 / 42

Moving on to step 4:
42 can be fit into 133 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 7.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 173.0
Deduct 126 from 133 and we're left with 7.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 74 / 42

Going ahead to step 5:
42 goes into 74 1 times with a remainder of 32.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1731.0
Subtracting 42 from 74 leaves us with 32.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 32, then carry on: 325 / 42

Let's proceed to step 6:
42 goes into 325 7 times with a remainder of 31.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17317.0
If we subtract 294 from 325, we get 31.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 310, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 42 fits into 310 7 times, leaving a remainder of 16.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 17317.7
If we subtract 294 from 310, we get 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
42 goes into 160 3 times with a remainder of 34.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17317.73
If we take 126 away from 160, we end up with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
42 goes into 340 8 times with a remainder of 4.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17317.738
Subtract 336 from 340 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 40 by 42, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 17317.738
The remainder is 40 after subtracting 0 from 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
If we divide 400 by 42, we get 9 and a remainder of 22.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 17317.73809
Subtract 378 from 400 to get 22.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 220, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
42 goes into 220 5 times with a remainder of 10.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17317.738095
If we take 210 away from 220, we end up with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

On to step 13:
If we divide 100 by 42, we get 2 and a remainder of 16.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 17317.7380952
Subtracting 84 from 100 leaves us with 16.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 160, and continue the process.

Step 14:
When dividing 160 by 42, we get 3 with a remainder of 34.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 17317.73809523
Deduct 126 from 160 and we're left with 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 17317.73809523 with a balance of 3.4e-08.
